My soul is old and has travelled through time

Seen the ages of man and felt the divine.

Smelt the fires of the holocaust

Witnessed the horror of what was lost,

Heard the cries of babies new born

Sat and watched the sun of dawn

If you choose to tread the path divine

let go of hate and let love shine.

I cannot believe how easy for you it was
To wrap your hand around my heart
Like a snake with a vicious grip
You're holding me tight
And the venom you spread in me
Is a poison I have tasted before
Sweet and addictive it turns to acid
When withdrawal hits and you run away
All I will be left with is regret,
The firm print of hope against my soul,
The cold shadow of hopelessness following my steps,
And the words you said
That made me laugh once
But make me cry now
I cannot believe how easy for you it was
To release me and slither away
As if I never mattered at all
As if I never existed at all
